Over the past few hours, several Xbox players have started commenting on a curious promotion related to World of Tanks that could be giving away free balance for Microsoft accounts along with other additional gifts.

The situation began to attract attention after some users shared captures and messages received directly from Xbox, showing small credits added to the account and free Premium offers linked to the game.

Some Xbox players are receiving free credit in their account

According to several comments published on Reddit and other Xbox communities, some users would have received promotional balance from Microsoft after having World of Tanks installed or logging back in after a long time without playing. In addition to the free credit, some players also claim to have received:

• Free premium days
• Special offers within the game
• Promotional messages from Xbox

So far, Microsoft has not officially explained how this promotion works exactly or what specific requirements activate the gift, but many players believe it could be an automatic campaign aimed at recovering old World of Tanks users.

Try this:

• Open World of Tanks from your Xbox account even if you haven’t played in years
• Check your private messages and notifications within Xbox
• Check the balance of your Microsoft account after logging in
• See if you have any free Premium offers or active promotional content
• If you played during the Xbox 360 era, try with that same old account
• Download the game again if you had deleted it a long time ago
• Also check the email associated with your Microsoft account in case you receive any promotion
• Enter the game store and check if there are any available rewards

In fact, several comments coincide on something quite specific: many of the users who received the gift had not opened the game for a very long time since the Xbox 360 or Xbox One era. That being said, it’s worth noting that not all players are receiving the free balance, so it seems to be a limited or segmented promotion by specific accounts.

Anyway, since some users are already confirming credits added automatically to their profiles, it doesn’t hurt to check if you have World of Tanks associated with your account or log back in to see if any promotion is active. Microsoft usually launches this type of promotional campaign from time to time on Xbox, especially with free-to-play games and titles with many years active within the ecosystem.
